The Senior League World Series Asia-Pacific Region (formally the Far East Region) is one of four International regions that currently sends teams to the World Series in Bangor, Maine. The region's participation in the SLWS dates back to 1972. It has produced the most championships (17) of any region, all won by Taiwan. Taiwan won nine straight SLWS titles from 1972-80, the longest streak for any Little League division.

Taiwan has not competed at the Senior Little League level since 1996. They won every regional tournament they entered.[1]
